Principles, Property, and Land Use Practice Question
Question
A property manager asks how a rule affects a rental property for the Ohio Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving property taxation and Ohio Division of Real Estate. Which answer best reduces risk? (Item 192)
Answer choices
- A. Client funds may be mixed with business funds if the broker reconciles the account later.
- B. The issue can be ignored if the parties want to close quickly.
- C. The rule applies only to commercial transactions and never to residential transactions.
- D. Recognize taxation as a government power affecting real property in a way that fits Ohio exam practice.
Correct Answer
D. Recognize taxation as a government power affecting real property in a way that fits Ohio exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is D because property taxation requires candidates to recognize taxation as a government power affecting real property. The Ohio reference keeps the scenario tied to state licensing practice, while the other options rely on unsafe assumptions about oral custom, escrow, client preference, independent licensee authority, or ignoring written duties.
